The Merseyside outfit already have a wonderfully strong group of players, but should they manage to add the two mentioned players, they might just be unbeatable.

Pepe, 24, is one of the most exciting wingers in the game, and he was in sensational form for Lille last term, racking up 23 goals and 12 assists in 41 appearances in all competitions.

19-year-old De Ligt, meanwhile, has firmly established himself as one of the best centre-backs in world football after enjoying a stellar campaign with Ajax.

Both players have plenty of years left ahead of them, and should Liverpool manage to sign he duo this summer, they will be in a fantastic position from which to dominate over the next few seasons, both domestically and on the continent.
